Panapanagang(1 year 9 months 22 days).The elders (Hamsters are already considered seniors when they reached their 18th month).

Mochawonka (♂).Eldest male, therefore the family chief.😆He’s gaining weight lately.The Hall(made available to all members as a hammy-gym) was reserved for him from 6 to 7 am, and most of the evening hours.

Mochahontas (♀).Grumpy grandma’s bites are not that ‘nasty’ anymore.(Obviously, the “Lola” had passed on some of her temperament trait to granddaughter Syma!)

Isnohontas (♀).To both humans and fellow-hamsters, the peace-loving momma remains the most amiable of all. She’s been spending most of her time sleeping, but insists on getting out of her cage when awake.

PanapanaIIgang(1 year 7 months 22 days).The new oldies are only 60 days younger than their parents, Mochawonka and Isnohontas.

Wigwam (♂).Still young-looking.Always wary and suspicious, ready to bite (not so hard – “nip” is more appropriate) if handled against his will.Very responsive to odors of his kind – male’s musk makes him gnash his teeth, female’s scent excites him so easily (this behavior is typical).

Teepee (♀).Ispidbol’s widow has a cyclical mood shift.Shows hostility toward her fellow-hammies except when she is in heat.The most vocally expressive among them.

Boolagang(1 year 4 months 16 days).Two of the three surviving male offspring of Mochahontas (A third white male named “Hamty” is still living with his foster owner).These two ‘boolaboys’ are the new ‘record-holders’ (you may want to check this out – The Lupindilayks).

Bebong II (♂) and Berio II (♂).The ‘Dugyot’ (unGroomed) Brothers 😆 are the most hyperactive.Physical growth seems retarded.Sharing cage, still no sign of serious fight or struggle… just like that – carrot- and wheel-olympics 😆 (see video).

Chochobebes(1 year 1 month 17 days).The offspring of the late Isnobol.My youngest hammies have reached their ‘midlife’ last month (June 4).

Syma (♀).The once-bitey hamster has been learning to deal with humans.Meticulous regarding her food and toilet habits.Active in the first few hours after midnight, making all sorts of noise when I and my wife are about to sleep.

Amboy (♂)shifted his daily sleep-and-wake schedule.At about 12 noon everyday (when all other hamsters are sound asleep), the once-thin and timid little hammy is persistent to leave his cage for a four-hour ‘workout’ in The Hall.The fact is, he is right… he’s quite big now for his homecage wheel.
